Looking for anyone who can share pics of a DSSD with a <7 inch wrist

Just wondering how it would fit on my 6.5 inch (flat) wrists

Thanks!

Jack T · 28 May 2016, 06:24 AM

I can't help with pictures, but be prepared...most will say you have the perfect wrist for the watch.

Daytona88 · 28 May 2016, 06:35 AM

I have the same sized wrist as you and could not pull it off.

Why don't you just head to an AD and check in person? Safest way before you make your mind up.

Sublovin · 28 May 2016, 07:00 AM

6.5? It's gonna look real big. Wear what you like but the DSSD is a big watch regardless, for a small wrist it will really look big

watchwatcher · 28 May 2016, 07:21 AM

It will look something like this...you'll be fine.

But, you may want to try on beforehand to be sure.

As tried on at the AD. Just about 6.5" wrist here too...

6.5 inch wrist. Tried it, went with SD instead.

jeffgo888 · 28 May 2016, 02:57 PM

no issues..LOVE it!

Ruud Van Driver · 28 May 2016, 03:43 PM

It has a lot to do with the shape of your wrist, not just the size of the circumference. Most important (IMHO) is whether or not the lugs overhang your wrist; no overhang, you're good to go

eonflux · 28 May 2016, 08:35 PM

Close-up and then further away in a mirror
D Blue not moved between first 2 pics

Close-up shots will make watch look bigger relative to wrist, and to the bracelet width

Racerdj · 28 May 2016, 08:44 PM

With this model, I highly recommend you trying it on.

Daycruiser · 28 May 2016, 08:45 PM

I do think the wrist factor is important, but there are other things to consider as well. I think a person's height and built needs to be considered as well. Those with a very svelte physique may seem a bit odd with this watch. The 44MM is not the issue, it's the thickness of the case as well.

1William · 28 May 2016, 08:57 PM

I have owned several DSSD and they are great watches. I think the challenge most people face when trying the watch on is getting it correctly sized. Once links are removed and the glidelock is adjusted, you get a real feel for the size. The other part of wearing the watch is the weight compared to smaller watches. In the end I transitioned to the ND-Sub-C and really like it more.

bbhewee · 28 May 2016, 08:59 PM

I have large wrists but on the subject of sizing, I'd recommend removing the extension link if you're not going to use. Makes the watch sit very differently.

brandrea · 28 May 2016, 09:01 PM

As stated above this is one you really need to try on. I have a 7.25" flat wrist. Mir fit ju fine but the case height is something I just couldn't get over.

Yes, I have a 6.75-7 inch wrist and mine fit fine so a flat 6.5 will also be fine, but it is the thickness you have to be reconciled to, I didn't mind it before, then I preferred the Subc, and now I could go for a DB no bother.

Looks great on your wrist.

appreciate all the responses, looks good to me as a ROO wearer but will indeed be trying on after the weekend

yannis · 28 May 2016, 11:39 PM

7 here.

Always the most underrated advice around here. Nothing beats wearing the darn thing.

Wears so similar, you'll be fine, mate.

cervantes · 29 May 2016, 05:01 AM

My wrist is about 7 inches. Don't enjoy wearing it because of the thickness and weight ratio. Dial on the blue is excellent, but probably going to move it.

WristEnvy · 29 May 2016, 05:18 AM

I have a teeny wrist but a flat wrist. I think it works out and the bracelet is awfully comfy.
